ION Products Amaze Core 4/3 Front Zip

ION’s Amaze slogan this season is all about how it embodies women who always take their chances, express their style, and are fun and confident, and this suit couldn't be more suitable! When I first unpacked the ION package, my jaw dropped. The vibrant colourway is the most stand-out feature of the suit and is guaranteed to make heads turn...

When the water temperature has a bit of a bite, but it is not quite cold enough for that winter wetsuit, the Jayde Fullsuit 3/2mm from Mystic will be your perfect choice. This front zip wetsuit is Mystic's highest-performing wetsuit for women, featuring updated streamlined graphics. My test model came in the navy colour with a lilac tie-dye print on...

ION Products Amaze Amp Front Zip

Over the years, ION has maintained a sterling reputation in the kiteboarding industry, and I couldn't wait to test out the Amaze Amp Front Zip wetsuit for this issue of IKSURFMAG. As soon as I unboxed the wetsuit, it felt solid, but as soon as I put it on, the super stretchy material and front zip design made it easy...

Having a proper wetsuit is crucial in the UK during the harsh winters. When it’s cold enough to consider if you really want to get out for a session, the right wetsuit can make the decision an easy one. It’s a good thing I had the latest Ion Amaze Core 5/4 Front Zip in my closet, or the late winter...

Manera Bikisuit

I have recently had the pleasure to kite in some warmer waters, though warmer than my usual UK, it was still not quite warm enough for just a bikini and a rashy. This gave me the perfect opportunity to try out the new Manera Bikisuit. Firstly the suit arrived in a simple cardboard box, with no plastic wrapping or any...

Manera Seafarer Steamer Frontzip

A quality wetsuit that fits like a glove is a must in any quiver, especially if you want to spend a lot of time on the water in less-than-tropical conditions. MANERA's reputation of not compromising when it comes to their design ethos or the quality of their range (not to mention video productions!) had me itching to get my hands...

Prolimit Fire-X FreeZip

As someone who is in the water all year round an awful lot, I have in recent years begun to favour top-end suits as these can be easily justified. Not only that, 5 years ago a mid-range suit would leave little to write home about other than a potential good look and, if you were lucky, a lone patch of...

Over recent years we have noticed the number of women’s specific watersports, and namely kitesurfing, products on the market increasing – which is awesome! Some these are rider-owned brands, run by women who couldn’t find what they were looking for readily available and they took matters into their own hands. This same scenario goes for Truli wetsuits and founder Mia...

The Fire suit from Prolimit is their mid range offering and the pricing is incredibly good for the technology and features it includes.

Having worn the Pure Girl Oxygen suit from Prolimit for most of the last winter and being a fan of its warmth and flexibility, I was keen to try a suit from the Fire range and see how it compared.
